[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sublue:
Alright, then I'm sorry Google couldn't answer your question. (Which is odd, since overclocking is kinda popular.) :rolleyes:

Anyways, Overclocking means to "Make the CPU go faster than it was designed for". Some devices "like the hero" can jump from 518mhz to a stable 691mhz by overclocking, this increases the speed of the CPU so that programs and the OS can work faster.

But overclocking is about finding the highest speed, while having the stability to use it. Since it's no use to overclock, if it makes your phone unusable to use. (Force closes, phone freezing etc.)

Overclocking CAN harm your device, if you take a too high value. But if you stay inside a stable zone, there shouldn't be any harm to your device.

You can experience that the phone is getting a bit hot, or that the battery is emptied faster than normal.

Since the CPU drains so much power, there are settings that allow to set a different clock (how fast the device should go in mhz) when the phone is at sleep. So that it can run at a much lower frequency, when you don't use it.

ROM developers normally post ( 691/197 ) or something at their thread, the first number is the CPU speed when it's on and you're using it. And the other is when the phone is at sleep.

If there's anything other you want the answer to, ask it here.

But, please use Gooogle search Before posting anything. ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wezternator:
Overclocking increases the clock speeds of a CPU. And as a result means it can do *things* faster.

Overclocking on a desktop PC tends to increase the voltages to overclock the device over this isn't really an option on a phone as it has limited battery life. So overclocking on a phone is normally done by software changes. When CPU makers make a CPU they can not be 100% accurate on the performance of that chip - in fact its very much the opposite, so after each chip is made it is tested and then given a clock speed and locked to that, overclocking breaks that and allows you to manually increase the clock, however overclocking capabilities will be different on every device.

If you take an example of an Intel Chip, a 2.66GHz Core-2-Duo, this is exactly the same chip as the 3.06GHz however when tested it wouldn't run as fast so Intel sell it at a stable clock speed.

Overclocking the hero shouldn't really have any implications for the device, however overclocks can reduce the life-time of a CPU (and any other hardware you might overclock). You shouldn't notice much extra heat from the device as the voltages being used are not changing.

Hope that cleared some of it up for you.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dukethegrey:
I had a similar issue with inability for Sense to load when I had installed some analog watches on my device to go with my Cookies' Home Tab. Maybe it's too late now for me to start talking about this, as you must have worked the problem out by now, but all I had to do to resolve this was to install a .cab file with the original CHT analog clock and restart my phone. I remember I was only able to use the Start button to launch any programs, and I had freaked out myself, but it's been a while for me too, so it is enough not to panic, think clear, read relevant threads here and ask the right questions to the right thread, probably the ones that directed you to change something on your phone. Hope everything's OK now for you. Cheers

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] react:
I had similar problem with not starting the Sense. Maybe it is not your case but maybe it helps. Sometimes my HD2 started without Sense - just the wallpaper on the screen. I went to Setting -> Today and checked the Sense home plugin. Saved and Sense started to load again. I don't know why the plugin was unchecked and what application did it but it just was.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yorkshire Yellow:
This worked for me...

I knackered Sense by trying out the e-reader tab. For me, this worked: -

Disable Sense

Restart device

Install attached cab

Restart device

Enable Sense

Restart device

Got it from a thread about the e-reader tab where someone else had suffered problems with Sense on trying to remove it.

Good luck!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kromosome:
The cause of your problem can be the Android if you're trying or using it from your SD Card! If you are, pull out your card and try to load Sense again!

I also had similar problems, and it turned out that the reason of my problem was the Android... perhaps it changed or modified some important files inconnection with Sense, or I don't know...

[Desire General] Frozen-GPU:

Hey guys, now that we have the Desire hd roms, wouldn't it be possible to mod a desire screen to have a clearpad 3000? At work my job is very hardware related and with the right plans I guess it would be possible for me.

Does anyone here know if the touch hardware is located in the flex band of the digitizer or on mainboard?

I will go and learn some basics about capacitive touch screens next days, maybe it is possible to implement clearpad 3000 in our good old Desire phones...

Why did you resurrect an extremely old thread?
[Vibrant General] joe.kerwin:
I know it sounds repetitive. I constantly work on computers and use my own at home but all I use is macs! I had a g1 and everything was pretty manageable by flashing zips and metamorph etc, but adb is something I really never needed to learn, and all I hear is how windows users use adb. Are there any setups for mac users? That doesn't involve too much trouble? Thanks, and I'm sure this thread could help any other mac user that is looking into rooting their phone.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
You don't have to use adb.. reread the root thread for updated, easier instructions. With it this easy, yes it's worth it.
[Vibrant General] joe.kerwin:
no, no. I know you can root it without adb, but it seems like if you want to theme/mod things adb will be a big part of this. Just kind of looking for a savior mac solution that I maybe haven't heard of to accomplish adb.
[Vibrant General] nick_karstedt:
No, usually theming/modding requires flashing more .zip files through recovery. ADB is probably most commonly used to push .apk (apps) files to the system that are otherwise uninstallable or more or less built into the system.

Many people with modded phones will never use adb.
[Vibrant General] MikeDo:
I'm also a mac user, this is my first android phone, and my programming knowledge is a high school java class which i took 6 years ago. With that being said I've had no problems learning some of the commands involved with ADB. If you are some what tech savvy and have decent problem solving skills you can work your way around most of it.

As far as setting up my mac, I just downloaded the SDK and was able to use ADB without having to download any drivers like I had read in a lot of guides, but then again most of those are written for windows users. I'm still learning as I go but its pretty interesting and XDA is definitely a good place to start.
[Vibrant General] salfenito:
Even of you need to use adb for something in the future, adb works fine on a mac. I have been rooting and modding my android phones since the G1 and have always used one of my mac computers. Drivers are not needed and most phones communicate without a problem.

[Nexus One Android Development] aureliusmaximus:
Hi guys,

Please excuse me if this is a very noob remark, but when looking into the update file I notice (under patch - system - apps) an app called Passion Quickoffice. Does this mean that quickoffice is included?

And is this an addition or is it included in all stock rom's? (I can't find a folder called patch in one of the stock rom's).

Very curious to find out if i'm just imagining stuff here or not.

Oh and does anybody now of a rooted version of this update?
[Nexus One Android Development] Cabarnacus:
Yes Quickoffice is how all the stock and custom Roms can view attachments in email such as Rich text files and .doc's etc.

Although included its not visible in the launcher and just works when needed. The taboo regarding whether is included as warez etc only applies to custom Roms as redistribution is against HTC's terms of use. So in short its always included in HTC devices' stock Roms.

As for "patch" folder this is exactly as it says. It is just "bits" of the new apps that get slip-streamed into the old apps already in your phone's system folder.

Doing this means the update can can be very small compared to installing a full Rom with whole app files getting replaced. Only the new bits of code are pushed into the old apk's turning them into updated apk's.

Very clever and effective way of updating, however this kind of update requires the stock recovery to do it properly. Think about it... if you've messed with your system partition and replaced .apk's that were not issued by Google then the stock recovery will recognize that they are not the originals and will abort the update. That is why part of the stock update process says "Checking System".

If this kind of safety mechanism was not in place the update would patch non-Google issued app or framework files and the code would no longer match up, in turn, breaking your Rom.

Please someone with epf30 to frf91 try to flash the 80 to 91 us update and see if that works so we know if future updates can be taken from the us versions for the european vf n1
[Nexus One Android Development] Cabarnacus:
I really don't think that will work or conclude whether it can be done or not.

EPF30 will not compare to anything like the "80" version when the recovery tries compare the checksum of what it should have in /system and what is actually in /system.

Since we are all being leveled out on the FRF91 build it is good news in the ways of Androids maturity to be compliant worldwide.

However, don't think that's the end of the Vodafone builds taking a little longer... The reason for the delay was a culmination of different changes that needed to be made to be compliant/stable with Vodafone's network, not to make horrifying changes like in the past.

Since the Nexus was made available on Vodafone they had an obligation under Ofcom's regulations that every facility they offer as standard (Data, MMS, voicemail notifications, correct sms timestamps) HAD TO WORK FULLY from square one because you were parting with hard earned cash for these services. Hence the tweaks and thorough testing.

Networks in the UK provide a very good service unlike American networks who rip people off and fall short wherever they can. In the US they can get away with pawning off a quick and nasty software update... not here.

Not to mention that before the introduction of "smartphones" Mobile handsets were very much divided to US models and Asian models (which were supplied to Europe) This divide allowed different network technologies to form with different bands. Back in the day living in Europe you had to make sure you had a triband phone before it would even work in the US, but the dual band models worked everywhere else in the world!

The divide is very much being broken down, but naturally there are still differences and those need to be catered for, hence a Vodafone rom and Korean KT rom and a US rom.

Until the technologies and methods of delivering mobile services is unified, there will always be different stock roms, and extended tweaking and testing periods.

It is done for the benefit of the end user wherever they are in the world and it won't go away as long as we have to adapt US products to work with Europe, so will people for Christ sake stop griping that Europe has to wait that little bit longer and pining for a united build, cause its just not going to happen any time soon.

[Touch2 General] dna11an:
Hi. I have a new HTC Touch 2. On the 'Start' menu, there are a number of icons / applications. They all start with one tap. Except 'Internet Explorer'. The first tap on the IE icon, takes you back to the 'Today' screen, with 'Internet Explorer' briefly being able to be seen in place of 'Start', then the words disappear. However, the programme does not run. On tapping 'Start', again, and then tapping once on the 'IE' icon (again), it runs. This happens every time I want to use IE. Why? HTC Contact Centre suggested I place IE on the 'Programs' page and try that. It was the same. they have failed to respond to my response. Is there a remedy? Cheers. Dave
[Touch2 General] dtmark:
Although I can't help you solve this, my phone does exactly the same as yours.

The problem also shows up in email - when you click a link, you see "Internet Explorer" very briefly in the subject line, and then have to click the link a second time.

It does seem odd that a Windows powered device is insistent on using Opera by default, but I wondered if this was because IE was problematic.
